To better serve the Filipino community in Sydney, Zignal Travel has expanded its services to include Western Union money remittances. A family-owned business, Zignal Travel has been in operation since the early nineties and has proven to be trusted in the community. Owners Atoy and Tess Sayas are well-known leaders not only in the Filipino community but also in the Blacktown area.

“It’s about connecting Filipinos better to the Philippines.” said Atoy Sayas. “We not only make sure Filipinos travel home safe on the most economical flights, we now also make sure that their hard-earned money reaches their loved ones back home, through Western Union,” he added.

Filipinos sending via Western Union can opt for cash in minutes — pick-up or sent directly through their relatives’ nominated bank account. “It’s simply convenient and reliable. Andoon agad!” (It’s there right away.)

Located right in the heart of Blacktown at the Main Street Arcade, right in front of Blacktown Train Station, Zignal Travel is usually a hub for Filipinos getting together.

The dynamic husband and wife team are committed supporters of various community associations and projects. Among their many community commitments, Atoy Sayas was former President of the Filipino Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (APCII) and the Philippine Community Council of NSW (PCC-NSW). His wife, Tess Sayas has just completed her term as President of Rotary Club in Blacktown and was recently awarded by Blacktown City Council, ‘Woman of the Year.’ “It’s all about trust and Filipinos can definitely trust us,” said Sayas. — www.filipin-oz.com
